What has been the recorded peak level of hydrogen sulfide gas at Brown?
• EPISD began air testing in early December and found the peak level to be .029 parts per million. Air monitoring will continue at the campus until it is eliminated. How can hydrogen sulfide affect my health? • Exposure to low concentrations of hydrogen sulfide may cause irritation to the eyes, nose, or throat. It may also cause difficulty in breathing for some asthmatics. Brief exposures to high concentrations of hydrogen sulfide (greater than 500 parts per million) can cause a loss of consciousness and possibly death. In most cases, the person appears to regain consciousness without any other effects. However, in many individuals, there may be permanent or long-term effects such as headaches, poor attention span, poor memory, and poor motor function. No health effects have been found in humans exposed to typical environmental concentrations of hydrogen sulfide (0.00011–0.00033 parts per million). How can hydrogen sulfide affect children? • Children are likely to be exposed to hydroge
